7 жыл бұрынHow to Improve Trumpet Range
This lip slur exercise has helped me improve my high register on trumpet. I was introduced to this trumpet range exercise by my trumpet professor, Dr. Amy Gilreath-Major, at Illinois State University.

Hey I’m starting to get back into it, any tips on how to improve middle register? I can barely get to a G above the staff.
@TheBlackTrumpeter 2 жыл бұрын
1) approach trumpet in a relaxed state with good/balanced posture 2) learn how to properly use breath support and tongue level to do most of the work for you rather than squeezing or pinching with the middle of the lips. 3) Sing/hum/whistle to match the pitch you want to play. If you can produce the note from within and not rely on the instrument to play the note, you will be more accurate.

Great exercise! I particularly like the fact that it goes up the triad , then adds the sixth rather then the octave. Reason being is it can be much more difficult to slur up a fourth (like most range studies utilizing full major arpeggios) rather then a whole step when working on your range.
@TheBlackTrumpeter 7 жыл бұрын
Thanks but I can't take the credit. Just sharing what I've learned and what worked for me 😄 Yeah man! I like those aspects as well. It really tests how efficient I am with my air support, air speed and tongue arch. But the thing I'm thinking about is making sure all the notes have the same tone quality as much as possible. The body takes care of the rest. Although I know what all the mechanisms are that produce the sound I want; I don't focus on those minute details.

I've been going through a major embouchure change. My horn used to be pointed upwards and I would blow harder and activate the abdominals to play high notes and I would top out at around F/F# above the staff. I would also form cuts on my gums because I would press the horn into my face to player louder and/or higher. I now am trying to play more efficiently with my horn down, no face pressure, no abdominals (except for when playing louder, not higher) and I've been using your videos to help me. Thanks.

Great vid. I have some thoughts on this: The important part of this exercise is the pause. During the pause, it’s best to think about what you just did: what worked, and what didn’t. I like to think that my brain is “smart”, and my embouchure is “dumb”, and these slow, deliberate exercises help us physically reflect on what we’re doing, to help our “dumb” embouchure get it right eventually. It takes a long time, but with consistency the payoff is totally worth it. Great content sir! 👊🎺
